The 41-year-old believes the veteran mentor will have no problems at Amakhosi, but challenged the team to stand up and be counted.
Former Kaizer Chiefs midfielder Josta Dladla believes Gavin Hunt will bring a change of fortune to the team given his experience at home.
Hunt joined Amakhosi on a three-year deal last week, and Dladla believes his trophy-winning experience and pedigree is what the club needed to end its five-year trophy drought.
“They just signed a new coach who comes in with a lot of experience. I mean, he won trophies with different teams,” Dladla told the media.
“You have to take it seriously. He’s been in the game and he’s done a lot of things. I think it will bring a lot of changes to the team,” he said.
Dladla disagrees with the view that Hunt’s style of play doesn’t suit the Chiefs, saying the 56-year-old made SuperSport United one of the best ballgame teams during his six-year tenure. years with them, where he won three. league titles in a row.
“I know a lot of people say their style of play might not suit the club [but] this is the guy who’s been in the game. When he was with SuperSport United, they played one of the best footballers in the country. So you can’t say that he will never handle the Chiefs’ style. ”
According to the retired midfielder, the fact that Hunt has Dillon Sheppard and Arthur Zwane as assistants means the Chiefs are in good hands.
“It comes with Dillon Sheppard, who has done well with the youngsters at Bidvest Wits, and he has Arthur Zwane, who has been doing it on the other side, producing a lot of young people for the team.
“So you have two guys who know what they’re doing and when they work together, anything is possible,” continued Dladla.
The 41-year-old television expert further questioned whether current Amakhosi players are ready to stand up and be counted under Hunt, adding that it’s all up to them to make the coach’s stay a success at the end of the day.
“Are the players ready to take everything that comes to mind in the plan? Are they going to understand whatever comes up?” I ask.
“Are the players ready for the new coach? It’s about them at the end of the day.
“The coach can’t do much. He can talk all day, but if you don’t go out as an individual to do your best, then it’s useless. It’s all about the players at the end of the day,” concluded Dladla. .
